They don’t make men like Andy Griffith anymore Mayberry is all dead and gone Opie I’ll meet you by the swimming hole We can play all day long
Old men teach little boys to fight wars It’s just a fact, it’s what we do All this hatred and violence in the world is giving me the blues I saw my mama get beat again He put her head right through the door Daddy always cleaned his guns in front of me So I shut down my heart and I turned on my tv
They don’t make men like Andy Griffith anymore Mayberry is all dead and gone Opie I’ll meet you by the swimming hole We can play all day long
I saw the devil in my daddy’s eyes He left part of that devil inside of me If there’s a god out there Won’t you take this cup away from me
They don’t make men like Andy Griffith anymore Mayberry is all dead and gone Opie I’ll meet you by the swimming hole We can play all day long
My stomach begins to bleed F rom all the pills and the liquor that took the best parts of me My shadow it runs fast The closer I get to death the closer I am to free
They don’t make men like Andy Griffith anymore Mayberry is all dead and gone Opie I’ll meet you by the swimming hole We can play all day long
